RedstoneTeleporting (SignPortals)

Introduction

Sign style SignPortals can be set up to teleport specified entities within a cuboid area around the sign when the sign receives a redstone signal. This means you could set up a redstone contraption that ultimately teleports all animals or players in a room to the destination on the sign.

Redstone sign syntax

On the first line of the sign, specify what to teleport, how large of a radius, and optionally an offset direction (relative to the sign). The format for this line looks like [A:5:UP] which means that A (animals) within a 10x10x10 cube above the sign (starting on the same y level as the sign) will be teleported to the destination on the sign when the sign receives a redstone pulse.

To explain further, the first line must first start with [, then the option for what to teleport:

• A - animals
• P - players
• M - monsters
• ALL - all entities Followed by a :, then a number representing the "radius" of the cuboid (The length/width/height of the cuboid will be double the radius).

Optionally, follow the radius with another :, then the option for the direction of the cuboid:

• UP - cuboid above the sign, including the sign's y-level as the base
• DOWN - cuboid below the sign, including the sign's y-level as the top
• NORTH - cuboid north of the sign, including the sign's x position in the south side
• SOUTH - cuboid south of the sign, including the sign's x position in the north side
• EAST - cuboid east of the sign, including the sign's z position in the west side
• WEST - cuboid west of the sign, including the sign's z position in the east side

(Not entering this optional part will cause the cuboid to be centred on the sign)

Finally, end the line with a ]

Next, add [mv] so that Multiverse knows this is a signportal, then add the destination you found before. As with all other signportals, if the text turns green, then success! You have entered a valid combination.

Examples

All entities within 10 blocks of the sign to go to the spawn of world

   [ALL:10]
     [mv]
    w:world

All monsters directly above the sign to teleport to fernferret

   [M:1:UP]
     [mv]
 pl:fernferret

Powering

Signs can be powered from all sides except the top, and for wall signs you must power the sign itself, not the block that it is attached to.
